  1. Apparently the unnamed staffer posted an insane screed about the halftime show
  2. I noted Eliza Gonzalez of Baby Driver and Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare.
  3. That was the little kid in the blue hat!!!! LIAM!
  4. That was bad ass! Kudos to reference to Puerto Rico’s power grid.
  5. I am strongly considering subscribing to The Guardian. Those pesky UK reporters do some work.
  6. Jesus in the temple: righteous anger. Patton pissing in the Rhine: joy in victory.
  7. Is Quisling telling the Norwegian partisans to stop bothering to interrupt the heavy water shipment and to ski instead? Is General Jaruzelski telling the Solidarity protestors to just give their movement up and concentrate on shipbuilding instead? Its a lot easier for the opportunists to take advantage of people if they are somnolent.
  8. Vince Foster would be alive today if he had owned a gun...etc.
  9. In the movie Lincoln...the response of Lincoln to the southern peace commissioners is refreshing. We could do with more of that.
  10. I think the people who understand History knew the WaPo was the reason Nixon went down. Isolate no other reasons: they needed it brought to heel to keep this anti-christ in power.
  11. As usual the UK press is working and the US press is licking the scrotum of the rich and powerful https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/feb/07/nsa-foreign-intelligence-trump-whistleblower
  12. I've looked at the journal this teen girl had which is entered into evidence. I can't tell you from first glance if this is credible given how effective Russian intelligence is at forgery. They wrote the original Protocols of the Elders of Zion back during the Czarist era and that has had a lasting impact on World History. What I will say is that it looks like something a teen would produce if she were in the situation of one of the Epstein victims.
  13. Bezos so busy firing Lewis that he forgot he needed to pay to repatriate his reporters who have been putting their asses on the line on behalf of journalism.
  14. Woah! Eliot Higgins as you may know is Bellingcat guy. This is a thread (Higgins') you want to read.
  15. AWS and Blue Origins contracts with the federal government were the most important things that needed to survive the Trump presidency. If destroying the WaPo is the cost of that, well Bezos did what he needed to do. We need a new media and we need serious reform of media ownership.
  16. The problem is that Trump doesn't know that during the most serious national emergencies in this country's history, (The Civil War, WWII) congressional elections were held as normal. He won't know that because Stephen Miller and Steve Bannon will tell him whatever they need to tell him to get what they want.
  17. I know the pendulum is clearing swinging in their favor and if elections are held at all the Dems should win in a blowout. What will Trump do to prevent that? https://bsky.app/profile/mcbridetd.bsky.social/post/3medkyttwwk2g
  18. Reading somewhere that Bezos was mad at Will Lewis because Lewis was at the Superbowl week enjoying the parties while his staff was liquidated. I think Bezos was mad that people don't like him and are using his product only as much as is necessary for a monopoly.
  19. Yeah, hard to regulate things when there is no Pearl Harbor event to make people notice the problem.
  20. If this is necessary for a bloodless Revolution so be it
  21. So, I'm looking at the Dem redistricting plans for Virginia and from the practical aspect of having to run and serve the voters, having a district that spread east to west is a pain in the ass for the rep. But, if it punishes the autocratic methods of the GOP who are trying to disenfranchise everyone in favor of the ruling junta. So, yep...bring it.
  22. https://www.wsj.com/business/media/justice-department-casts-wide-net-on-netflixs-business-practices-in-merger-probe-fd30d7f8 So, Amazon just gets a free pass? Money well spent Jeff. And speaking of monopoly. Does Netflix have a monopoly? Much less so than Amazon does that's for damn sure.
  23. all out of likes. These are great.
  24. The Andy Dufresne approach.
